School News: Bird Nest

Today the sky was a gorgeous blue when we headed out to class this morning. When I left the house to go pick Isabel up from class the clouds had rolled in and filled in all the pretty blue with grey. I was sad to see the sun and blue sky go.

The Bible story was from Matthew 13:1-23 and was the parable of the sower and the birds that ate the seeds that fell on the path.

The class talked all about birds and nests that they build. They talked about peacocks and got to to see and feel real peacock feathers. They read the story of “The Best Nest” by P.D. Eastman. Afterward they built their own bird nests on paper with feathers, paper, and bits of plastic strips.

Isabel’s nest it has red feather’s under all the paper.
The two round circles are the birds in her nest.

They worked in their Monday morning alphabet journals and worked with the letter “W“. “W” is for watermelon. Today during recess Isabel and Makayla played hide and go seek. When I asked her if anyone else wanted to play she said the others were not around to play so her and Makayla played together. During free play Isabel played with Eden, Addie, and Olivia. Isabel said that Olivia, Addie, and her were pretending to be puppies. Eden was the mommy of the puppies. Eden was a good mommy she said.

The special helper today was Ja’Siah. For show and tell Ja’Siah brought 5 dinosaur’s and 1 of them was a T-Rex! For snack, Ja’Siah brought to share Go-Gurt®, graham crackers, and fruit punch.
